Chapter on the Prayer over the Dead

عَنْهُ عَنِ اَلْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَامِرٍ عَنْ أَبِي اَلْمِعْزَى عَنْ سَمَاعَةَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ:« لَيْسَ يَنْبَغِي لِلْمَرْأَةِ اَلشَّابَّةِ أَنْ تَخْرُجَ إِلَى اَلْجِنَازَةِ تُصَلِّي عَلَيْهَا إِلاَّ أَنْ تَكُونَ اِمْرَأَةً قَدْ دَخَلَتْ فِي اَلسِّنِّ»
From him, from al-Abbas ibn Amir from Abu al-Mi'za from Sama'ah from Abu Basir from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, who said: Imam al-Sadiq عليه السلام said: “It is not appropriate for a young woman to go out to a funeral to pray over it, unless she is a woman who has reached a older age.”
